Bolding Cone Head

And if we add Circular Standing Wave Resonance to the minimum \(KE\) from the post "Two Quantum Wells, Quantum Tunneling, \(v_{min}\)" dated !9 Jul 2015.


This standing wave resonance occurs when the frequency of oscillation \(f_{SHM}\) (SHM along a radial line), is an integer multiple of the angular frequency, \(f_{cir}\).  The results of resonance are sharp peaks at discrete locations along \(x\).

When we flip this graph vertically,


which is the absorption spectrum below a threshold intensity.

\(f_{cir,\,1}=\cfrac{v_{min,\,1}}{2\pi x_1}\)

\(f_{cir,\,2}=\cfrac{v_{min,\,2}}{2\pi x_2}\)

But,

\(\cfrac{f_{SHM}}{f_{cir,\,1}}=N\)

\(\cfrac{f_{SHM}}{f_{cir,\,2}}=M\)

which leads to the proportion identity,

\(\cfrac{x_1}{x_2}\cfrac{v_{min,\,2}}{v_{min,\,1}}=\cfrac{N}{M}\)

For three dip points on the graph, \(X_1,\,\,Y_1\), \(X_2,\,\,Y_2\) and \(X_3,\,\,Y_3\),

\(\cfrac{X_1}{X_2}\sqrt{\cfrac{Y_2}{Y_1}}=\cfrac{N}{M}\)

\(\cfrac{X_1}{X_3}\sqrt{\cfrac{Y_3}{Y_1}}=\cfrac{N}{O}\)

\(\cfrac{X_3}{X_2}\sqrt{\cfrac{Y_2}{Y_3}}=\cfrac{O}{M}\)

From which \(f_{SHM}\) can be calculated, once \(M\), \(N\) or \(O\) has been determined graphically.

You are not going to get a graph of \(v^2_{min}\) versus \(x\), of course.

But in my dream...
